 It's never too late to learn something new. Adventures in lifelong learning is back in Bemidji with eight free presentations for its spring semester. The program was started by a Bemidji State University alum to encourage the pursuit of knowledge throughout the community, no matter the age. Topics for the sessions range from local history discussions to talk about art and social studies. This week attendees learned about the Concordia Language Village. We learned how we began over 60 years ago. How this summer is pretty important because we're celebrating 50 years of credit programs, high school credit programs in the villages. I just talked about my journey, my voyage, of free life as both an academic, getting my degrees in comparative literature and in comparative languages, and then taking that further to go abroad and do research. The classes are held every Tuesday up alternative electric cooperative at 10 in the morning. Anyone is welcome to attend. Just show up, sign up, and you'll get on our mailing list. No cost, we have free coffee and cookies and certainly do accept free will donations because that's the way we keep moving ahead. Now for a list of upcoming topics, check out the story on our website at lptv.org slash news.
